mid-month event

With Crescentview’s newest citizens settling nicely, the Goddess has summoned everyone back to Town Square for another round of announcements. This time, her summons comes to you in the form of a hand-written note. If you happen to be out working in your field, one of her fairies will hand it directly to you, looking a little more sprightly than they did the first time you saw them. Otherwise, expect to find her request/demand to meet up in Town Square in your mailbox.

introducing: the memo board

The Memo Board is now available in Town Square. You may post messages here to your fellow neighbors, send out requests for assistance on the farm, or even solicit local singles for hot dates! Post whatever you like whenever you like. You can even post messages to the board anonymously if you so desire. The Memo Board is available here.

But wait, there’s more! The Goddess has given everyone a fun relationship-building exercise. How well do you know your neighbors? Can you identify them based on their writing alone?

By December 22nd - 12:00pm EST, please have your character submit an anonymous message to be posted to the Memo Board. Their message can be about anything they’d like and there is no length requirement or restrictions. After submissions have been received, characters will be given an opportunity to review everyone’s messages and guess which character wrote which memo. Answers will be revealed on December 29th - 12:00pm EST. A single correct guess will earn you a horse while each additional correct guess will net you a vegetable, flower, or mushroom spore seed bag of your choice. Good luck and have fun!

it's time to dance!

Every Spring 15th, the annual Flower Dance is held in Town Square. Villagers gather to dance with one another and celebrate the upcoming harvest and offer their prayers to the Goddess. Folks are encouraged to dance not just with those they fancy, but their fellow neighbors as a way to express gratitude and appreciation for the friendship and company they provide.

ICly, the dance takes place on Spring 15th and goes from 9am to 9pm.

task board

In addition to the tasks currently available on the Task Board, a handful of new additions have been added. You may continue to work on tasks from the previous event in addition to these new tasks, but please note that tasks may only be completed within the month they are assigned. Summer starts next month, so please have all of your tasks completed and submitted by then!

The new additions are as follows:

1. Post a notice on the Memo Board. Stick up an anonymous memo and earn a single chicken or rabbit to add to your coop. You may post as many notices as you like, but you will only redeem the reward once.

2. Correctly guess who posted a memo. Discuss these anonymous notes with one another and guess who may be the author. Between December 22nd and December 29th, submit your IC votes (link coming on the 22nd) and if you guess correctly, even just once, you will get a horse! You may guess as many times as you like, but you may only redeem this reward once.

3. Partake in the Flower Dance. Pick a partner for a round of dancing, pray to the Goddess, or just celebrate the good times! For every person that you celebrate the event with, you will receive a random bag of seeds of fruits, vegetables, flowers, or mushroom spores. This task can be completed 5 times.

4. Send a letter to your neighbor. This requires you to have acquired the stationary set from the first event, so if you haven't claimed it yet, get to it! You can post letters directly on the main community or set up an inbox in your journal to send and receive hand-written letters. For each letter that you send, you will get a random gacha item. This task can be completed 3 times.

5. Harvest your crops. On the 14th, you'd be surprised to find that all of your crops are now ready for picking - even if you've only planted them the day before. The crops look bright, flavourful, and ready to be picked, so eat them, trade them, sell them, whatever! For every interaction that you have involving the bountiful harvest, you will receive a new set of clothes. This task can be completed 3 times.

Hm?

[ Trahearne's voice comes out in a croak, what Kaeya tells him not immediately registering. He hovers over him in his pause, eventually peeling himself from him to look around the bed. ]

--Ah.

[ The bottle isn't that far, and Trahearne quickly scoops it up in his hands. It's cool to the touch, a reminder of both what Kaeya told him, and that the heat he absorbed from the other man will likely quickly dissipate if he tries to warm it himself. So he puts it in Kaeya's hands, cups his hands over his, and dives in another tonguey, messy kiss. ]

[calla]

[ He takes the bottle, holding it in one hand while he places a hand on Trahearne's cheek, closing his eye. After a handful of seconds (he could have waited longer, but he's starting to get impatient), he breaks off the kiss, patting at Trahearne's shoulder to have him back off just a bit. ]

How about we put this to use?

[ He shakes the bottle in his hand. If Trahearne will let him, he'll take a hand and pour it generously over his fingers. ]

[pactmarshal]

[ Trahearne dutifully holds out his hand, letting the viscous liquid coat his fingers. He doesn't seem to mind if some end up on Kaeya's stomach.

When he's ready, he remains hovering over Kaeya, not bothering to go back for a kiss. He...kind of wants to watch this, to soak in every little change in Kaeya's expression. His wet hand drifts down, a finger trailing along the curve of his rear before momentarily pausing at his entrance.

A smile--one that's somewhat comforting, perhaps even happy, yet at the same time somehow delighting in the control--blooms across Trahearne's face as he presses a finger in. ]

[calla]

[ Some of the lube does end up on his stomach, but he also doesn't mind. When Trahearne smiles at him, he smiles back, but then the finger enters and he closes his eye, sucking in a breath. It's been some time since he last did this, but he adjusts quickly enough. He's already wiggling for another finger. ]

[pactmarshal]

[ As Kaeya's eye falls shut, Trahearne's own rake up and over his naked body, watching him squirm against his bed.

He breathes. He likes this.

He pulls his hand back, then pushes in with a second. They stretch, massage his insides; eyes never leaving him the entire time.

Eventually, Trahearne leans down to whisper low in his ear: ]

Ready?

[calla]

[ He squirms again at the second digit, but he's certainly not hating it. In fact, he wiggles to allow Trahearne to get in deeper, to encourage him, but he's quick to grow tired of just fingers. He's glad that Trahearne is quick to pick up. ]

As I'd ever be.

[pactmarshal]

[ With a brief kiss to Kaeya's temple, Trahearne sits back on his heels and removes his fingers. He lathers what remains of the lube from his fingers (it's a lot) over his stamen, mixing it with what syrup has begun to leak from the tip.

One hand grabs Kaeya's hip to steady him, while the other guides himself right into him.

A throaty, gravelly groan slips from his lips as the heat overcomes him. His eyes slip shut, his head lolls to the side, and he pauses for a moment to let himself settle in the floating sensation.

It doesn't take long, though, for Trahearne to begin slow, measured thrusts, each motion accompanied by quiet exhales. ]

[calla]

[ He sucks in a breath as Trahearne sinks into him and groans lowly when he feels Trahearne fully seated inside. He wraps his legs around the other's waist, keeping him from pulling out too far, and his hands reach out to find Trahearne's shoulders. If he can reach them, he'd pull the marshal down close so he can whisper in between shaky pants and quiet whimpers. ]

Don't hold back.

[pactmarshal]

[ Trahearne doesn't need much encouragement.

One arm folded over Kaeya's head, bracing himself, the other grips firmly at his hips. His own hips roll in and out, slow at first, but quickening into feverish, desperate thrusts before long. His eyes flutter at each inch of friction on his dick, his breath is heavy in Kaeya's ear, absorbing and basking in the heat radiating from him.

It's very hard to think of anything besides the pleasure, and he lends himself to the foreign animalistic urges that overcome him. ]

[calla]

[ Kaeya isn't one to stay quiet, both in and out of bed, so soon enough, his voice fills the air alongside the creaking of the bed. At times when Trahearne hits just the right spot, he arcs his back and grows louder, overcome with pleasure. ]

[ At some point, he places his hands on either side of Trahearne's face, caressing his cheeks, to bring him close for a sloppy, messy kiss. ]

[pactmarshal]

[ Trahearne doesn't need much encouragement to sloppily kiss Kaeya right back, tongue not always meeting his mark. He moans into Kaeya's mouth as each thrust pushes him closer to apex.

He's so lightheaded. He's so overwhelmed by pleasure he doesn't notice the own quiet moans rolling in his throat. The hand on Kaeya's hip lets go, drifts to settle on Kaeya's cock, strokes stuttered and awkward as his concentration slips. ]

[calla]

[ Kaeya whimpers as a hand wraps around his leaking cock. Even as awkward as the strokes are, they still provide great relief. Combined with pleasurable thrusts, he finds himself quickly teetering on the edge. ]

[ And when he comes, it's with an arced back and a deep moan with his mouth still sloppily against Trahearne's. He tightens as his body tenses and his cum splatters across his stomach and chest. ]

[pactmarshal]

[ Trahearne moans into Kaeya's mouth in response, feeling how the other man climaxes around him sending waves of pure ecstasy through him. Briefly, he quickens his pace to push himself over the edge. And as he does, the blinding bliss steals function of all his senses as he slams himself all the way in, finding his release deep inside of Kaeya.

After a moment in the silence, eyes he did not realize were closed slowly peel open. He takes in Kaeya's features--the mans is genuinely very good looking, and Trahearne lets him know by placing a gentle kiss to his cheek. ]

You are my first. [ He smiles--is this a weird time to make this admission? ] Thank you.

[calla]

[ As he rides out the last wave of pleasure, Kaeya lays on the bed, panting and taking in the afterglow. When Trahearne comes close to kiss his cheek, he does the same and smiles. ]

I'm honored. [ He already starts to feel the cum leaking, so ugh, he should clean up. That's the most annoying part. ] I hope you don't mind if I stay over tonight.

[ don't fuck him and then kick him out ]

[pactmarshal]

Of course not.

[ His voice is low, and soft. He thinks it would be strange to immediately send him on his way... Plus what he said about his home being off-limits earlier. Is something going on?

Trahearne pushes himself up off Kaeya to sit back. And now, from this angle, yeah. He sees the mess.

That thought doesn't stay in his mind for long, though. His hands trail up Kaeya's hipbones to rest there. His eyes, however, keep going, and eventually settle on his face. There's slight worry in Trahearne's expression now as he studies the other. ]

You know, Kaeya, if you ever need anything, or if you ever need to talk, I am here. I consider you my friend, and I want to be there for you.

[ He says, dick still fully up his ass. ]

[calla]

[ Nothing wrong with having a heart-to-heart while being balls-deep inside another man. It's all good. Besides, Kaeya finds it touching that Trahearne cares so much, even though they've only known each other for a few weeks. In need of comfort, he nuzzles his cheek against Trahearne's hand. ]

... of course, and the same for you.

[ He then pats Trahearne's hand twice. ]

I'm going to get cleaned up now, if you don't mind.

[pactmarshal]

--Oh, of course not.

[ Sometimes, it takes prompting for Trahearne to move again once he starts thinking.

He shifts, pulling himself out with an audible sigh. Aaand that's even more mess. ]

I'll go with you--I could use some cleaning up myself.
